    Updating the plumbing and on a solid fuel system. Pump hooked up and working. Need to wire in the pipestat from the flow pipe to switch pump on and off. Anyone have a wiring diagram please. The pipestat is a simple two wire unit.

    Generally you run the live to the stat then to the pump,neutral and earth go direct to the pump.ie the live is switched.

    I think you will find the pipestat also has an earth connection that needs to be connected.

    Live to common terminal (C) on stat, then switched live from terminal 2 (I think I can never remember) its either one or two high or low to live on pump connect all netural together and all earth from stat to pump good practice.

    Its also a good idea to use heat resistant (hr) flex to wire the stat and pump.
